The Utah Golf Course Superintendents Associaton (GCSA) named Pat Christoffer, director of agronomy at Red Ledges Golf Club, Heber City, Utah, Superintendent of the Year at its awards banquet in Wendover, Nev.

Christoffer has been with Red Ledges since its inception. He manages the 18-hole course and the 12-hole, par-3 Jack Nicklaus Golf Park that opened in 2016.

“I am fired up about being named Superintendent of the Year – what a great award. Not just for me but for all the folks that have helped build our maintenance program into something special and unique,” said Christoffer. “We operate a program centered on integrity, creativity, and effort – I suppose this award means those little things matter. What an awesome piece of recognition for everyone at Red Ledges.”

The Utah GCSA board of directors chooses the winner of the Superintendent of the Year award based on the number of nominations and the justifications received.
